It is to be hoped that some support by way of legal aid can duly be made available in
the respects mentioned above.
This would supplement the non-governmental pro
bono services which continue to operate in Hong Kong, including the Free Legal
Advice Scheme of the Duty Lawyer Service mentioned above and the Bar Free Legal
Service Scheme, as well as the proposed Community Legal Services Centre initiated
by the Hon Ms Margaret Ng and the Hon Ms Audrey Eu SC.
Notes
Extension of legal aid was called for by the Hon Mr Martin Lee SC, the Hon Mr Albert Ho, the Hon
Mr Andrew Cheng, and the Hon Ms Audrey Eu SC, all speaking in Legco.
